First, the apartment is small but clean and room enough for single or couples. It is right in front of a BTS station which makes it super convenient to get around from here. There isn’t a ton of food/drink options nearby, but getting to them from here is easy. The complex even allowed me to park my rented motorcycle onsite, a huge plus.
Now the negative: Airbnb is currently illegal in Thailand. The host tries to “get around” this by claiming guests are staying as his “friends”. I know nothing about the legal system or how on the up and up this is! There are also multiple signs in the lobby of the complex stating that Airbnb/daily/weekly rentals are illegal, and they threaten “violent legal action”. I don’t know about you, but that does not sound like something I’d like to experience. So use Airbnb in Thailand at your own risk! This reflects nothing upon the host, who was great and I have no complaints about, and whom I’m sure this recent illegal ruling puts in a tough position. For that, I apologize, but I feel it important for potential guests to understand the legalities of AirBnB in Thailand. Frankly, they should either not list in Thailand or put some kind of disclaimer!
